I've been using Linux for 30 years, and I never knew of these shortcuts, although they appear to be same as in emacs. Thanks!

They are emacs keybindings. In bash, they are active when the environment variableEDITOR=emacs or FCEDIT=emacs, or set -o emacs has been run. There is also a set of vi compatible keybindings, used when set -o vi has been run.
See "man bash" then search for "Readline Key Bindings".

Thanks for this! I’ll try freezing the terminal before leaving my desk so no one can show their creativity on it 😆
